Monday, July 14, 2025 - Activist Adetoun Onajobi, has reacted to the death of former President Muhammadu Buhari, saying there is no reason for Nigerians to mourn a leader who failed to provide quality healthcare in his own country.
According to Adetoun,
Buhari’s administration was full of noise about building hospitals, yet he
never trusted the country’s healthcare system when it mattered most.
She expressed frustration
over the billions spent on medical trips abroad while ordinary Nigerians die
daily in poor conditions at under-equipped general hospitals.
She said it was unfair
for the same leaders who failed to fix the system to be given grand national
burials funded by public money.
Adetoun called on
President Bola Tinubu to do better and use his time in office to work for the
masses.
“Buhari no die for Nigeria. Person wey carry our money say
he wan build presidential hospital, shout shout shout from January to December
for four years to build hospital. He go die private hospital in London so now
like this we supposed to dey do national cry.
“When we are telling people that you don’t
know who be affected. all the power security emergency flying is over now.
Tinubu do the one we go favor everybody. You be be president build hospital for
us take care of the masses you say ear dey pain you you then go to bone marrow
transplant they spend all the national money on you. now, you are not in
power.
“I’m not sympathizing with anybody because na
our money dem go use do national burial. you see it? politicians
you see the power of greed and vengeance? now they be saying
this president better pass this one down. the only good president is the
one that will put infrastructure in your country. i cannot condole with
anybody. i cannot sympathize with anybody because masses too are dying every
day some people don die for general hospital ,some as they are born they die.
“This is not insensitivity this is about
everybody. we’re all affected no matter how big or how small you are. we are
all affected in this crisis how can the president of a country go and die in
another person’s country eh?”
